New Pics from 'In Bruges' Follow-up 'Seven Psychopaths'

Hey everybody, Colin is back!

I don't know many people who saw Martin McDonagh's In Bruges in theaters, though everyone who did see it on DVD or what have you absolutely raved about it.  Now there's more of that good thing headed our way, as McDonagh and Colin Farrell meet up again for the new comedy Seven Psychopaths, and GTBP has the first new images to share with you courtesy of Entertainment Weekly.  My gut feeling: this is gonna be a good one.

Colin Farrell & 'In Bruges' Director Reunite for 'Seven Psychopaths'

Half of the brilliant crew behind dark comedy In Bruges are combining talents again for a new film.  Martin McDonagh will direct Seven Psychopaths and Colin Farrell will be his leading man a second time, according to Deadline.  The Farrell led cast will also include Mickey Rourke, Christopher Walken and Sam Rockwell.  That's wonderful company for a comedy, at least on paper.

Rockwell Official for 'Cogan's Trade:' Will Dominik Complete the Trio?

Sam Rockwell is good in everything.  There, I said it.   It’s on the internet now, and thus irrefutable (right?).

Rockwell in Duncan Jones' Moon. See this movie immediately.Anyway, because he is good in everything, anything he signs up for is at least worth watching, if only to see him in action.  And if Cogan’s Trade wasn’t already shaping up to have a strong cast as we reported earlier this month, we can now say that Rockwell is, for all intents and purposes, officially in as the film’s star. But with Brad Pitt already on board, will writer/director Andrew Dominik complete the trio he formed in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford?

First Look: Daniel Craig in 'Cowboys & Aliens'

Here's our first look at James Bond, 19th century cowboy. Yep, Daniel Craig replaced Robert Downey, Jr. in Cowboys & Aliens, the upcoming comic book flick directed by Jon Favreau. But it's more than just Favs who is getting this one out; Cowboys & Aliens is co-produced by Steven Spielberg, Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, and Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, who also wrote the film.

We've got the synopsis below, but it's a pretty exciting prospect, really. Craig playing against type (something he does with tremendous ease and focus, incidentally), along with a hardnosed Harrison Ford and Olivia Wilde and Sam Rockwell, both of whom could just show up and I'd be fine with it.

Trailer - Sam Rockwell, Hilary Swank in 'Conviction'

The Oscar roll call that accompanies movie trailers does one of two things, and sometimes both. It can tell you much talent has been assembled for a movie, which to some people indicates there's no way the movie represented can be bad. It can also remind you of how unfair the damn Oscars are.

Witness the new drama Conviction, based on actual events. The Oscar roll call includes two-time winner Hilary Swank, the never-recognized Sam Rockwell, and nominees Minnie Driver, Juliette Lewis, and Melissa Leo. Oh yeah, I forgot: Juliette Lewis has an Oscar nomination. And so does Minnie Driver. Sam Rockwell...bupkus. That's sad. The upside is he looks terrific in conviction, playing a man wrongly locked up for 18 years. So does Swank, for that matter, and at least in the trailer, her Boston accent doesn't falter or really get in the way. That's one actors tend to overdo to showcase how dedicated they are to getting the accent down.
